While many of Neal McCoy's honorable military contributions are not as widely known as some of his career accomplishments, recognition is not what McCoy's after. Instead, Neal McCoy views events such as General Franks' as an opportune time to promote his patriotism, share in honoring our military, and remember loved ones who have been lost.

Throughout this Memorial Weekend celebration, special activities in addition to Neal McCoy's concert include the grand opening of the General Tommy Franks Leadership Institute and Museum, a Military Salute Parade featuring special floats dedicated to veterans, and a Patriot Spotlight Panel sharing stories of patriotism followed by a tribute honoring all present military. Other events include the 41st annual Arts on the Square, a fishing, skeet and softball tournaments, motorcycle rally, fly-in, quilt show, carnival and much more food, fun and entertainment.
